Släkthistoria för Vivash
Vivash Vad efternamn betyder
apparently from some place named from five ash trees such as Five Ashes Farm in Colemore and Priors Dean (Hants) though none of a relevant age has been firmly identified. If so the V- will be due to south-western voicing of the initial consonant. Medstead (see the 1644 bear below) is about six miles from Colemore.
